On June 7th, 2009, we finally got married in Australia!
[Update from 2009-06-23]
I started uploading some wedding pics on my Flickr account (and will be doing that until the end of time, I reckon). They are not public (only for family and friends), so you will need a (free) Flickr account - contact me within Flickr. Also, thanks to Diana who provided her pictures in a nice album at tabblo.com here, here and here.

I have just finished packing most of my stuff, so now I am sitting here, trying to realize that we will be off to Australia tomorrow (plane starts @ 15:25 from Hamburg) as kind of “bachelor and bachelorette” - and we will be coming back as a MARRIED couple… can you believe that? 
Suzan is already asleep - she is somehow more focused on getting things done. I am always trying to do several things at once, which leaves me with not finishing a single one of them in time. Maybe that’ll change when we come back. I was thinking about changing some things in my life, anyway… maybe I will even try to cook some chicken in the future? You never know… *LOL*
I will try to keep you updated here on my blog or at least on Twitter, but I can’t promise anything, as I do not know when I am able to use the computer over there. But don’t worry, I think there will be plenty to tell when we are back.
So long, see you soon!

I just registered for CSS Naked Day at naked.dustindiaz.com. It just made me realize that my theme design kind of sucks.
Quote from that website:
The idea behind this event is to promote Web Standards. Plain and simple. This includes proper use of (x)html, semantic markup, a good hierarchy structure, and of course, a good ‘ol play on words. It’s time to show off your <body>. (end of quote)
To determine the CSS Naked Day date and to strip off the CSS from the theme, I am using the WordPress Plugin that can be found here. CSS Naked Day should start in less than 2 hours from now at my place, but in some places, it is already April 9th. So be sure to set the time to the recommended 48 hours (which I forgot at first).
OK, I admit: that hint comes a little late, so just save it for next year.
Also, if you are using the PHP Speedy WordPress Plugin, be sure to deactivate it when the time is near, because the CSS Naked Day plugin does not seem to work with that one activated.
BTW: I find the PHP Speedy WordPress Plugin quite handy!
OK, websites: get naked!
Oh, and before I forget:
A big thankyou to Frank Bültge for the reminder!

On Friday, March 13th, 2009, me and my fiancée were on our way to my parents, driving down the Autobahn A7 Hannover in the direction of Kassel, when we had to stop in a traffic jam near the departure to Hildesheim.
Fortunately, we had left a gap for the police and the ambulance (as so-called “Rettungsgasse”) - otherwise, the guy that was coming to a stop right between our car (middle lane) and the others (left lane) would have crashed right into us… seems like he was a little distracted.
SO, PEOPLE, REMEMBER:
ALWAYS LEAVE THAT GAP IF YOU ARE IN A TRAFFIC JAM, EVEN IF SOME PEOPLE TELL YOU NOT TO - IT CAN SAVE YOU FROM BEING SERIOUSLY INJURED - MAYBE IT CAN EVEN SAVE YOUR LIFE!
Here are two links that explain that gap called “Rettungsgasse” (both in German):
I found an article about this accident on the website of the “Hannover Zeitung“. As I wanted my English readers to participate in this, I used the Google Translation Service to translate the German article into English.
You can look at the result on my Flickr site.
Well, it seems like Google Translate still needs work…

I just read this nice article by Frank Bültge that deals with the image caption shortcode that WordPress creates automatically when you add an image via the media manager. As I never really liked it, I can’t say how happy I am that someone finally explained to me how to get rid of it in a very simple way.
Just add the following code as a plugin or to your functions.php:
add_filter( 'disable_captions', create_function('$a', 'return true;') );
I have just written a small plugin that you can download here.
Credits should go to Frank Bültge for this. Thanks!

I just recently updated my WordPress plugins, and after I downloaded Maintenance Mode (v4.0) and uploaded it onto my WordPress blog, Filosofo Comments Preview threw an error that said:
Call to undefined function get_currentuserinfo()…
That was pretty odd, because both plugins worked fine before - now, after updating one of them, the other one threw an error.

I think I don’t have to mention here that Google still needs to work on its translation service… *LOL*
